Haskell is somewhat academic (despite being WAY more widespread and used than D), but not because it has experimental features switch-able at compile time :-)
Regarding type system features, I think the pure annotation is one of the best things added to D2. When a language like D has static typing, I want the full advantages of it (like good type "annotations" enforced at compile time), otherwise I'm fine with Python.
